Ricky Rogers
Photo archivist/Clerk
I started taking photographs and working in the photo lab in November of 1978 for The Tennessean, after attending Western Kentucky University. Soon, I work my way up to staff photographer and won numerous photography awards over the years. I was a staff photographer until July of 2007, when I became the photo desk coordinator from August of 2007 to July of 2009. Now, I am the photo archivist and photo clerk, starting in March of 2012.
